Huh? Those prices are for all taps. If a court orders a wiretap, how are telcos supposed to resist, and on what grounds? "All wiretaps are illegal?" This says nothing about how prevalent illegal wiretaps are.
There may be some profiteering going on here (see the discrepancies between Comcast's prices and Cox's prices), but where is the illegality/immorality in complying with a court-ordered wiretap and charging money so that each wiretap doesn't end up costing your business money to implement?
Sorry, I was sloppy. The more taps, the more profit. You can make more money from warranted taps plus unwarranted taps, instead of just warranted taps.
